Setting UpBefore you beginWe appreciate your choice of the Bose Acoustimass 15 series II or Acoustimass 16 homeentertainment speaker system.Bose Virtually Invisible speaker technology allows you to enjoy lifelike home performancesfrom the very latest surround-sound encoded movies, CDs, and television shows, without aroom full of speakers. The cube speaker arrays, along with the powered Acoustimass module, reproduce the full-spectrum of sound from multi-channel digital programming. IntegratedSignal Processing assures full bass performance from all channels at all listening levels,regardless of your receiver settings.Your stereo VCR, stereo television, or DVD player sends the encoded program material to thesurround-sound receiver, which interprets and distributes the information to the poweredAcoustimass module. The module delivers the bass for all channels and sends appropriatesounds to each cube speaker array. The sound mix varies with different program types: dialogue is usually sent to the center cube speaker array, a visual soundstage is created by theleft and right front cube speaker arrays, and you feel as if you are in the center of the actionbecause sounds and special effects are directed to the rear cube speaker arrays. At any pointin a surround-sound performance, you may hear sound from one, a few, or all of the cubespeaker arrays.To select surround-encoded program material, look for the terms Surround, Dolby Surround,the double-D symbol 3, Dolby Digital 1, other digital formats, or the word “surround” preceding a TV broadcast. Your system is compatible with home theater receivers.You can also enjoy a wide variety of stereo programming that is not surround-encoded.Unpacking the cartonWARNING: The powered Acoustimass module weighs 33 pounds (15 kg). Use good liftingpractice to avoid injury.WARNING: To avoid danger of suffocation, keep the plastic bags that wrap these speakersout of the reach of children.Note: This product is not to be powered by any DC-to-AC inverters that may be found inautomobiles, recreational vehicles, boats, ships, or other similar situations.Carefully unpack the carton contents (Figure 1):1.Remove the brown inner carton containing the cube speaker arrays.2.Gently roll the carton over onto its side.3.Slowly pull the Acoustimass module from the carton.4.Stand the module up.If the cube speaker arrays or the module appear damaged, do not use them. Repack everything in the original carton and contact your authorized Bose dealer immediately. Or, to contact Bose directly, see the list of offices and phone numbers enclosed with your system.Note: Now is a good time to record the serial number of these speakers on page 2 of thisguide and on your warranty card. Please save all packing materials for possible future use.4AM264924 00 V.pdf August 13, 2002

You may want to place the speakersdifferently to take advantage of the sound characteristics of different rooms. Here are somesuggested guidelines for placing your speaker system: The cube speaker arrays are identical and can be used for any channel. All cube speaker arrays are magnetically shielded to prevent interference with a TV picture. The top and bottom sections of the cube speaker arrays can be rotated to createroom-filling sound patterns (Figure 3). Bose wall brackets and floor stands can extend your placement options. See “Accessories” on page 17. Please follow wall bracket instructions carefully. Proper mounting willensure optimum performance and safety from your system.Note: The Acoustimass 15 Series II may be upgraded by adding a center rear cube speakerarray. See “Upgrading your Acoustimass 15 Series II speaker system” on page 12.5AM264924 00 V.pdf August 13, 2002

Soundshould seem to come from within the picture. Place the front center cube speaker array above, below, or on top of your television. Ifbelow, be sure that it is not supporting the weight of the television in any way. Keep the front cube speaker array as close to the vertical center of the screen as possible,for the most accurate dialogue reproduction.CAUTION: Choose a stable and level surface for your cube speaker arrays. Vibration cancause them to move, particularly on smooth surfaces like marble, glass, or highly polishedwood. If you are placing the center cube speaker array on top of your television, use the setof four rubber feet provided. You may obtain additional rubber feet (part number 178321-04),free of charge, by contacting Bose Customer Service. See the list of phone numbersincluded with your system.6AM264924 00 V.pdf August 13, 2002

Setting UpFront left and right cube speaker arraysThe front left and right cube speaker arrays create a sound image wider than the screen thatseems natural to viewers sitting anywhere in the room. You can place the cube speaker arraysnear a TV screen with no picture interference. Place the front cube speaker arrays on eitherside of your TV, at least 6 feet (2m), or as much as 15 feet (5m) apart (see Figure 2).Rear cube speaker arraysThe rear, or surround cube speaker arrays add discrete sounds and special effects thatexpand the visual image, bringing the viewer into the center of the action. The rear cubespeaker arrays may carry dialogue as well. Position the left and right rear cube speaker arrays to allow the sound to reach the viewerfrom both sides, rather than from directly behind (see Figure 2). Place the rear cube speaker arrays at ear height (when seated) or higher, if possible. Rotate the top and bottom sections of the rear cube speaker arrays to direct the sound tothe front and back of the listener. If you have a center rear cube speaker array (Acoustimass 16 system or upgraded Acoustimass 15 Series II system), place it so that it is centered between the rear left and right cubespeaker arrays (see Figure 2).Powered Acoustimass moduleBose Acoustimass speaker technology takes advantage of the fact that the source of purebass sound is difficult to locate, so you can hide the powered Acoustimass module conveniently out of sight. Place the module at the same end of the room as the television monitor. You may hide the module behind furniture, but do not block the opening. Be sure there is atleast 2 inches (5 cm) between any surface and the front opening or the grille on the bottom. If the opening faces the wall it increases the bass; if it faces away it decreases the bass.CAUTION: To prevent interference, keep the module at least 2 feet (.6m) from your TV set.Figure 4Powered Acoustimassmodule placementNote: Placing the module horizontally, or onits side, may reduce ventilation, inhibiting itsability to play at full output for extendedperiods of time.7AM264924 00 V.pdf August 13, 2002

Setting UpConnecting the speakersCAUTION: Never connect the cube speaker arrays directly to a receiver output. Always connect them to the powered Acoustimass module, then connect the module to the receiver.CAUTION: Never use broken or frayed wiring, which can result in electrical shock or damageto your system. The supplied cables are not intended for in-wall installation. Check localbuilding codes or enlist a qualified installer.Connecting front cube speaker arrays to the Acoustimass moduleThree individual 20-foot (6.1m) speaker cables connect the center, right, and left front cubespeaker arrays to the Acoustimass module (Figure 5).

Make sure all cube speaker arrays are connected to the proper terminals according to their position in your room. Check that all wiresare connected to your surround receiver in phase ( to and – to –). Incorrect wiring canresult in a total loss of module output. Correct wiring problems before you plug your receiverin and turn it on.Connecting the Acoustimass module to powerNote: Bose recommends using a quality surge suppressor on all electronics equipment.Voltage variations and spikes can damage electronic components in any system. A qualitysuppressor can eliminate the vast majority of failures attributed to surges and may be purchased at an electronics store.After you have checked all system connections, plug the power cord of the powered Acoustimass module into an AC (mains) receptacle. Your Acoustimass speaker system will turn onand off automatically as it receives a signal from your surround receiver.Upgrading your Acoustimass 15 Series II speaker systemYour Acoustimass 15 Series II speaker system can be upgraded to provide you with 6.1 or6 channel surround sound.The 6.1 upgrade kit contains one black (PC 029661) or white (PC 029662) cube speaker array,a 50-foot connecting cable, and complete connection instructions.To purchase the 6.1 upgrade kit, contact your local authorized Bose retailer or call Bosedirectly. See the list of Bose offices and phone numbers enclosed with your system. Whenordering, you will need to know the serial number of your Acoustimass module.12AM264924 00 V.pdf August 13, 2002

Using your systemFor realistic home theater soundCAUTION: The Acoustimass 15 Series II and Acoustimass 16 speaker systems incorporatean automatic protection circuit, which guards against most kinds of damage from electricalstress or overload. This circuit activates at high volume levels to reduce output, causing aslight decrease in volume. This is normal operation and indicates that power input may beexceeding safe levels. Sustained listening at these levels is not recommended.Adjusting the LFE levelThe LFE (low-frequency effects) level control on your powered Acoustimass moduleincreases or decreases the relative level of low-frequency effects on movie sound tracks. Useit to regulate the presence of these underlying deep bass sounds. Use the “test tones” featurein your digital surround sound receiver to match the volume levels for each of the cubespeakers. Then use the LFE control on the Acoustimass module to match the volume of theLFE channel to the cube speaker channels.Adjusting the bass/room compensation levelThis feature will allow you to fine-tune your system after you have placed the Acoustimassmodule in your selected location. If the room sounds “thin” or lacks bass, turn the BASS control in a clockwise direction to increase the bass level of the module. If the room sounds“boomy” or has too much bass, turn the knob in a counter-clockwise rotation to reduce thebass level of the module. The factory or detent setting is appropriate for a majority of listeningsituations.Setting your digital surround sound receiverYour Acoustimass 16 or Acoustimass 15 Series II speakers are fully compatible with theoutput from digital surround receivers. Integrated Signal Processing assures full bassreproduction for all channels regardless of receiver settings. However, the following tablesuggests a set of recommended receiver settings. The cube speaker arrays should be set toLARGE in the receiver’s digital display menu. The LFE, or subwoofer, is set to ON. If applicable, the crossover value should be set to the lowest number possible, typically 80 Hz.SpeakerReceiver settingLeft and rightLARGECenterLARGELeft and right surroundLARGECenter surround*LARGELFE/SubwooferON* Applies to Acoustimass 16 systems or upgraded Acoustimass 15 Series II systems.
